Notice
Summary
The Department of Commerce is asking for public feedback on the rules that let businesses import emergency supplies like food and medical gear without extra taxes. This process helps speed up getting aid where it’s needed most, and the government wants to keep these rules just as they are. If you’re a business involved in emergency relief, you’ve got 30 days to share your thoughts—no new costs or changes are planned.
